be back with us germany's finance minister wolfgang schauble said to me to greece's top and politician alexis. the leader of the leftist syriza party the meeting is seen as a chance to convince the strong critic that he needs to back harsh austerity measures imposed on athens yanis varoufakis a political icon a must and author says germany wants to establish dialogue with the greek position as they could win the next election. let me say the law was in opposition from this

mrs michael if you talk to him and then find it much harder to assess the relationship with him once he became president of the french republic similarly mr slipper's may well be in government and after the next election in the future in greece so germany needs to have a mode of communicating and not in order to be either to convince me to go but it's easier to convince me so bullish about that i wrong their thinking but it has to be some kind of good communication. in the midst of the economic crisis regulators are coming under fire for making a life easier for banks rather than for people and it appears the wider public knows little of how and where the big decisions about the global financial future are being made martinis peter oliver reports. have you ever heard the wall about the bank is the billions and bars all the chances are you probably haven't but six

times a year central bank heads from the u.s. europe asia and everywhere in between representing around three quarters of global economic output gather in the swiss city to talk shop behind closed doors i personally also don't like these secret if meetings because. you never know what in effect. is discussed in these meetings it's something that has a tradition that's put there play i mean bankers have always talked to each other in a more secretive way the whole business of banking is not really built on transparency but rather on trust and confidentiality the continuing global financial crisis has seen the banking sector firmly in the spotlight with more than a few accusing fingers pointed in the direction of bankers it's the job of the secretive bars all committee to set regulations on banks the chairman of the group says he wants the public to be better informed about the work they do it's not that

many years ago since this was basically a group of central banks it's expanded its membership considerably and in the process of that the whole governance arrangements of have changed as well and i think this is an attempt to explain to you in the world in general what those changes amount to and whether critics of the group are scathing in their criticism of what they see as an old boys club looking out for the needs of banking bosses as opposed to keeping the industry in line bears three has failed to meet any objective in the you know faint hope of parading in banks this this is what we talk about today the banks does have to be reined in because the banking system in itself as a general rule has left its you know bottom sense despite mervyn king saying that he wants people to better. understand what the basel committee actually do the very nature of the banking industry and its need for

a certain level of secrecy means that the big decisions that will affect people all over the world will continue to be made by a small group of people in that building just behind me peter all over r.t. basel switzerland. on to some other world news in brief for you this hour hundreds of thousands of people have flocked to paris from all over france to protest against same sex marriage and adoption by gay couples three large rallies were held before the crowds marched through the streets to meet in the center of the capital president francois hollande side project marriage for everyone has faced criticism ever since he was elected last may. over one hundred thousand opposition supporters took to the streets of taipei to protest against taiwan's pro china president demonstrators have also urged the country's prime minister to step down over the country's stagnating economy the opposition claims the president's china oriented policies are gradually eroding the island's independence from beijing.

six men have been arrested and one declared wanted after allegedly committing a gang rape in the northern indian state of punjab the twenty nine year old victim is believed to have been traveling alone on a bus when the driver took her to a desolate location and called friends incident occurred just weeks after a gang rape in delhi which provoked massive protests throughout the country. and seven civilians have been killed after an explosion hit a village in eastern afghanistan the blast occurred as the villagers were trying to pull out the dead from a collapsed mosque destroyed during overnight fighting between nato troops and the taliban say a suicide vest on one of the dead insurgents might have caused an explosion. israeli prime minister binyamin netanyahu has pledged to continue building settlements in the west bank and his announcement came just hours after police evicted around two hundred palestinian activists and protesters from

a site marked for construction one of those activists believes that israel's upcoming election was the reason for the developments. when you have five hundred more than five hundred fully armed israeli soldiers. there doing villages with said that these forces are unarmed does that by itself is violent but even within the process of events and many. many others that suffered brutal beatings for no reason they did not even exist. out of there but they suffered due to the things we had at least six or seven of thought that sensor activists the tit in the hospital and a lot of them are still to see doctors for suffered from the beatings

the tough position on on this particular case you know nine days ahead of the elections on wednesday rival palestinian groups for time and hamas are trying to implement a unity agreement they first signed two years ago the easing of tension between the parties has already helped reunite one family in gaza torn apart by political strife and there's possibly a report into israeli policies that prompted both sides to look past their differences. it's been five long years since this family was together one thousand eight hundred days since a mean a muslim last saw her son his crime belonging to a group the gaza government was opposed to except this time it wasn't the israelis

who forced him into exile but hamas and other bronzer elec with family and house in gaza and headed for the west bank but it was only after the negotiations began that seventeen of us were given approval to go back home. it was back in two thousand and seven in a surprise coup that he must took control of gaza from wyvil faction group fatah one hundred sixty one people were killed and more than seven hundred injured when the dust settled the palestinian people were divided a mass was in charge in gaza fatah called the shots in the west bank hundreds fled their homes from both in fear of their lives like other fatah supporters from gaza mohammed took with huge in the west bank waiting for the day reconciliation would come. all denied i prayed to god to protect my son muhammad i prayed for his safety and asked god to bring him back home safe and now for the first time we conciliation between the two sides looks promising each feels boosted by recent

successes and is more willing to compromise her muscles capitalizing on the recent conflict with israel despite the heavy cost for fatah who's claiming victory after the president mahmoud abbas successfully upgraded palestinian status at the united nations as her mustn't fatter move closer together the irony is that they getting help from israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu his right wing policies and rhetoric are winning the palestinian support and sympathy on the international stage it was on that on yahoo's watch that as the recent united nations palestinian statehood bid demonstrated european unfailing support for israel has floundered it was also an attorney on whose watch that u.s. is revelations reached their lowest ebb and now it's on his watch again that palestinian unity seems plausible for. for her it's a long term interest of her for us to i think it's a cooperate again because otherwise they're running the risk that the west bank will be and will long be part of the same political structure which de facto right

now is the case leaders from both sides have a new day course for the conciliation if you ask me then you know we think that of course. between hamas and the catastrophe it's proof for that doesn't mean peace etc etc but for this family nothing can detract from the feeling of gratitude and joy of a father and son coming home they tears and smiles it could a hope that a new chapter is also about to open in gaza political life policy r.t. on the israel gaza border saturday saw thousands take to the streets in bahrain in the latest wave of anti-government demonstrations general to recal hassan the chief of public security in the gulf state believes these are protests are part of the democratic process his interview with r.t. just ahead.

yet another tragic shooting right on the streets of the capital is again cause to open the gun debate across the nation now all the talking heads are saying that you got to take away the guns to be safe well the problem is that the shooting happened right on the streets of the capital of a country where the guns have already been taken away paris france three kurdish women one of whom was a kurdish separatist party co-founder were shot dead the scene of the crime was right outside of a cursed institute which leads the police to think that it was an assassination you see when it comes to terrorism drug cartels the mafia you can make all the gun laws that you want but the bad guys will still have plenty of guns because they live outside the law al qaeda and mexican drug cartels don't go to the stores and patiently wait for their background checks to be done before they buy their guns taking away all the guns through legal means won't matter there will still be murder and there will still be armed thugs and terrorists but that's just my

opinion. the sex.

for the last twenty months sparring has been seeing demonstrations and protests in its streets and how is the government dealing with those dissenters we're joined. by the country's chief of public security in general i asked biggest much for joining us and my first question to you would be what is the current situation the security situation in bahrain how is the government dealing with the protests because i've seen in the baby's here and everyone television that the protests still take place and how is the government doing with thank you very much for coming and seeing me. actually as you know behind has been on a reform project since the last over twelve years now. this has been

a vast project in bahrain and the reform is actually on all fronts the main or the heart of this project is the democratization of bahrain now protests are actually at the heart of the democracy of the democratic process in bahrain protests were never good if you have a democracy so it's something that we learn and we learn to live with this is we talk about protests however riots what you cannot accept in a democracy and that's when. people come to a protest maybe even a peaceful protest but you would find a group coming for example prion with most of cocktails and other weapons and then they start breaking the law attacking. public cross property or attacking police force that's where you have to intervene and preserve the law but heard many

accusations from the opposition that preserving the law in body has been done with excessive force at times do you agree with that notion i mean is there any case i dated. yes of the excessive force but there are three main standards that we use when we deal with any security situation and we have to use force. and the proportionality legality in a city so in any situation. these three standards are observed now that does not mean that. you want. some time probably go beyond this that happens and people sometimes break the law either you know. as protesters and rioters or even as members of the police who would go and sometimes maybe go beyond the limit the legal limit that was given

to them or the orders when this happened and if it happens we have our legal procedures to take care of this and deal with it so people are put to trial and they face the real do you often policeman break the law and we use excessive force do they often get punished yes of course. now as you know we have a and but it's been within the ministry of interior who actually is. independent of the public security and answers directly to the minister of interior and this embodiment is in charge of looking into these accusations. abuses by by any member of the public security is the way you like or you know from the opposition that. the torture allegations in prisons and things like that is that all the reality was just made. i mean you know we've had. delegations

visiting the prisons and maybe i think you've had a visit to one of our police stations and i was hoping that he would visit the prison. you know these are allegations they are baseless we have investigated i mean if there is a real. complaint by someone then we would go and investigate and would take action if we found any basis for that complaint however to act you know to throw accusations in the air i mean you can everybody can say anything but the reality is the evidence is that you know that's not happening and actually why do we need to have any. type of torture if the the public prosecutor is a different or independent entity from the ministry of interior we don't we don't we're not in charge of the full investigation and prosecution in the court of law.

so torture is usually happens in countries where the police need to extract. maybe confessions to go with the chorus to the court of law we don't have to do this all we have to do is at rest and we have to do the initial inquiry and then the rest of the investigation is done by the public prosecutor so that is something that we are way away from so we you know it's nothing that we have to really. worry about because. you know as i said if you have a complaint please come forward and will investigate it however all the prisons now . are fitted with c.c.t.v. these even the interview rooms and police stations they're all fitted with c.c.t.v. and visual and audio recording and i'm sure if you have visited as i said one of the police stations. and now every police station has that so you know. i don't

know how we how would people at a gate how these allegations of torture all meet. but as far as i understand it if i got to correct you all the city councilors and although your records were put in place. because of the allegations of torture so were the cases before and it's actually these are actually in response of the recommendations by the b. i.c.i. the recommendations of the the bahrain international. commission commission. they had recommended a number of recommendations we have actually we've you know the all these recommendations are only part of our modernization and reform process within the ministry of interior so all that the commission did was to expect some of the projects that were already had in mind of course any modern police station police service or force today. we rely on modern technology to.

not just protect ourselves but also for better. policing and better investigation why those protests turned violent i mean bahrain has always been a rather peaceful cashel like many countries in the region and what you think what's behind the radicalization who stands behind it don't forget that we live i mean we're a small country and another region and. i think the whole world has seen by could but the causation in one way or another. is no difference and i mean the internet and the open sources today the media they all play a part in this. so you know this wave of radicalization that took place actually made us and actually resulted in more violence on the streets against the police during protests and public gatherings so i'm sure that very quickly things. go back as they were however with better restrictions and better knowledge of

limits. and procedures in accommodation in the media that all this protest is about he said about religious segregation so he says it does have intruders he suffers that's not true i mean if you ask anybody who lived in behind who knows behind we have always had a very cosmopolitan country be it in nationalities or even you know religions we have we have almost all the religions or many religions but not just muslims like a sudanese or she has never we never have problems with religious and behave. as i said aside because. i'm not talking about. radicalized or not anybody can i say sion and any side actually leads to bad things. to violence to. people. actually trying to take law by the hands of people thinking that. you know they own they have the

right they hold. that they only have the rights no others have no i think and behind. we all live together we have the same rights everybody there's no segregation on the basis of religion or ethnicity or anything else there have been a story or shall we say made lots of noise in the press about doctors who were arrested and detained and some of them later were tortured. what was the story behind that if you could clarify for. such of the doctors. anybody who commits a crime. i would have to face the law and in the court of law behind you can you can if you have any allegations have any complaints you can file them an investigation will take place and that's exactly what happened in this case. doctors have filed complaints and the investigations going on by the court but what are the charges against me with the law that is the part of the public prosecutors

because they are in charge as i said of charging and prosecuting of the court of law it's not the police issue but obviously that story as i say is that we have picked up from the press brought some additional pressure international pressure in bahrain about the human rights situation the torture allegations everything do you feel that question international pressure as the chief of police don't to be honest i have the law and i follow the law i abide by the rule now if i break the law my. main concern and my question is from within behind not outside but as i said you know there are people can i get anything they can they can have their own allegations. however we will investigate if there is a complaint as i said we will investigate them the problem with bahrain is that i think there have been an. media complain against print.

and i don't know. what i mean the. people come to the train and i have people here in my office i have them here sitting and they say we you know they came from outside they heard something and then when they came to the train they saw something totally different and they say you know. it's a totally different story and that's what you say before. you go one report something from behind your desk do as you just did you come to bahrain and you try to report the real story from. the heard from the rich just recently from the minister of justice that a new kind of measure to be implemented so that the religious leaders local mosques and local communities will be more. not to start eating rice will this become something of a new legislation will this become a law or just a temporary measure to silence the writing of protests or will not about silencing the protests but. i think that question should be addressed to the minister of

justice goes that's their field we as the police if the legislation comes out then we are. responsible for enforcing that law thank you so much general this was just. for us to get on the security situation. download the official application to yourself choose your language stream quality and enjoy your favorites from alzheimer's if you're away from your television or it just doesn't matter now with your mobile device you can watch on t.v. anytime anywhere.
